CD's run comes to an end... DNR wins in straight sets: 6-3, 6-4!
Waveland Tennis Complex, by Steve England; ESVN (Fair and Balanced) - Players were on-serve until CD hits the rim of his racket trying to return a DNR dropshot! This gave DNR a 5-3 lead, and a chance to serve it out! Although CD held a double break-point---DNR steps up the pressure, culminating with a winner down the line to end the 1st-set 6-3!
DNR has to play catch-up for the first half of the second---tying at 3-3, he then inches ahead for a 4-3 lead! When CD levels the set at 4-4 it looks like a third-set is in the making! This wasn't to be however, as DNR takes the next two for a 6-3,6-4 straight-set victory! DNR eliminates CD from this year's tournament, while advancing himself to the Southwest Finals!
